1997 Map of Allatoona Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

Lake Allatoona dominates this Georgia landscape, its irregular shoreline reaching into the deep hollows of the Bartow and Cherokee county lines. The construction of the Allatoona Dam transformed the Etowah River valley, creating a massive reservoir that now laps against the base of Red Top Mtn and provides the foundation for Red Top Mountain State Park. While the water redefined the geography, older layers of human activity remain visible in the surrounding hills, from the Strip Mine near Center to the numerous family burial grounds like Shinall Cem and Rowland Spring Cem.
